In our third part of our potty comparison, I’d like to review the Baby Bjorn potty. We purchased this potty at a local store when we wanted something small enough for our tiny downstairs bathroom.

I’d like to continue the potty seat three part review with a discussion of the Boon Potty Bench. We saw this at a local baby store and thought it was great. It is more of a bench, can be used as a step stool and has storage containers on either side. Overall, I think this [...]

Potty Comparison – Part I

There are so many different potty seats on the market – which one is the best? I think it really depends upon your child and the stage of training.
